A proposed high-speed rail project could have Lismore residents traveling to Brisbane to work in just 45 minutes, or to Sydney in just 2.5 hours.
Lismore city councillor Simon Clough asked his fellow councillors to back the report, which he says would cost $30 billion less than the costing from the previous federal (Labor) government.
The high-speed rail project is a collaboration between the German Aerospace Centre, the Beyond Zero Emissions group and the University of Melbourne’s energy research institute.
The proposed high-speed rail network could be powered by 100-per-cent renewable energy, according to the report.
